Talking It Works! It Works!!!!!

OMG, I can't believe it. Today, I saw a post someone made in response to someone's OGL problem. And guess what. I tried to do it. I went to the Nvidia Control Panel and changed some configs. And, when I tried OGL to test it.

OMG! It worked for the first time in my life. After all, it was just a bad config in my graphic card's configuration panel.

It's so great! To finally be able to see the Great Fox in Corneria in full color, to be able to play Mario Kart: Double Dash!, to be able to read things in Starfox Assault. And to be able to play in the Fountain of Dreams (I can now complete my event matches. I couldn't do some because of the stupid 1 fps in the Fountain of Dreams). YEAH!!!!!

Thanks, guys, for supporting me all the time. Thanks devs, for making a wonderful emulator (though when I wanna really play serious, I use my gamecube, it's still faster ). I'll give you my cookies.

Thatīs the magic of emulation for ya! Even though you have the real thing, itīs still a pretty incredible experience. I remember when i got my N64 emulator to work. I believe it was Nemu64. Tried UltraHLE some time before that, but it didnīt work on that old computer. Nemu was on a newer one, though. Ok, iīm rambling here...Glad you got it to work!

Not in Dolphin, in your driver's Control Panel.
Open: Control Panel > NVIDIA Control Panel and find any OpenGL settings, also make use recommended settings for the other 3D options you see.
Well I posted that in one of the threads.

May I ask in detail what you did with those three options? Like what did you change? For me by default under "Global Setting" vertical sync has "use the 3d application decide" option. And my extension limit is off. But i cant find the triple memory thing lol.

For my gameplay experience on dolphin to be perfect, I just need to get the cheats to work. I can't find the Master Code for GALP01 (SSBM PAL) and I the Giga Bowser and Master Hand codes I found are only for the NTSC zones. Could you please paste those codes in the respective topic please?

Next time, at least go into some detail of what you did so the thread is less useless for helping others with the same problem out.

About the triple-thing option, it could be triple buffering or trilinear filtering.

Also, Mario Kart DD doesn't fully work. It no longer darkens the entire screen if you use OGL, but it still crashes in the cups when you change tracks.
